Flamebaiting?

I realize that the How do we save the world from creationists thread may have been trolling or flamebait, but it's sparked some very reasonable discussion. Even the OP gave an option in the poll of allowing everyone to have their own beliefs so I'm not certain if they were looking to attack Creationists or to expose how unreasonable it is to view them in the way some do. However, Arnburg decided to jump into the thread and flamebait or something. Not really sure what it is.

Then you should stop trolling! I suggest you take a walk and smell the roses.

It served as a counter balance to the original thread filled with nothing but flamebait, trolling and hatred to people of faith, such as myself. Or do I not have a right to defend my beliefs? I will reply to anything at anytime if I so desire. If you or anyone has a problem with that, then simply IGNORE me, as I IGNORE many here as well. It's that SIMPLE! You have your views and I have mine. Do you still have a problem undertanding? If so, you can always unsuccessfully try and stop me!

Admittedly, my original reply was because I thought he was making fun of people of faith because it was so over the top, but it does appear that he has set out to disrupt the thread (which has been a little spammy for the last page, but had a lot of good debate with GnI and Tekania) because he's angry. Now he challenged me to try and stop him so here I am.

I guess it's escalating.

I'm gonna have to go with the theory that this is similar to HerPower. It's just too much of a charicature(sp?).

He continually asks for evidence and then says he won't accept any. Won't explain his points or answer an question and won't even offer a scriptural basis for his beliefs. We are honestly trying to have a discussion and he is thwarting all attempts.

This just gets better. I just don't believe this isn't a joke.

I saw his reply to you and I told you it seemed like he must be joking. It was just way too over the top. Anyway, thanks for dealing with it.
